I have the 3 qt. with electric valve. Hot, I bring the rpm up get the max fill and PSI and shut off the valve, then the engine. Cold test, with the valve covers off, turn on the valve, within a few seconds oil at the rocker shafts. Normal cold startup switch on, PSI to 30-40, then when starts to fall off, then start engine and into staging lane.
Canton requires #10 line.
I have mine on the left apron, maybe gets some oil cooled outside the engine for a bit. I have it mainly for dry starts, any other pressure maintaining is a good thing.
An option for road race guys  a pressure valve  that opens at specified setting. to keep pressure up.
Many sanctioning bodys require a stock type wet pan, so this helps.
If you don,t like /believe in these, then don,t use/ buy them. Nice Mustang you have there.

I have the 3 qt accu-sump on my NSS 67 Fairlane, got it mainly to pre-oil as car sets between races. My road race friend saw it said good move, he said one lap without the accu-sump and engine is gone. In drags, front or rear pickup pan, pickup may get uncovered during run or on decell.
BB, sometimes one can overcomplicate things, just get one put it on and go racing!
These FE,s are too expensive to take the chance.

Updated performance numbers and vehicle weight. First good test on a good track this year,  the only upgrade/change from last years numbers were the installation of Jays water pump adapter and the CVR water pump and spall dual 11" fans, from a Edelbrock  w.p. and a semi flex fan. Before it was 10.675 @ 125.25, for a few years, now 10.584 @ 126.25. Seems to rev quicker, maybe some due to weather/ track, but stiil a good gain. Temperature control was right on.

FE Technical Forum / JB water pump adapter 67 Fairlane results
« on: May 03, 2015, 02:07:32 PM »
Got to try out Jays adapter with the CVR 55 gpm pump, Spal twin 11 " electric fan/shroud,Griffin radiator, 160 deg therm. Works great, primary fan on with pump stays at 160 deg, going to the line. Sec fan on with 185 sensor was at 180 deg on gauge ,  after a run on return road, then idling in pit with hood closed. So far no creaping temp. at idle. Nice job Jay. 75 deg day here in north central Ill. Sat.

Car looks great. I,m installing Jay,s CVR/adapter on my 67 Fairlane  600 h.p. that has a Griffin Exact Alumn Radiator. What fan maker setup did you use ?. I,m thinking about the 30102052 11"  or 30102120 12" Spal . Thanks, Bob Mosher.
